Community Resilience through Abundant Hearts

Come enjoy an evening of community painting, beautiful music and poetry, and connection with community!

This year we're embracing our nonprofit's fundraiser theme, Our Abundant Hearts - a celebration of generosity, resilience, connection, and the power of community, especially in times that can feel increasingly uncertain and divisive.

In a world that often highlights our differences, the CCE community continues to be a place where creativity brings us back to our hearts, and to one another. With this spirit in mind, come paint, enjoy poetry and music, and sustain yourself with multi-generational community at our annual fundraiser event:

• Mocktail and Elixir Bar ✨
• Community painting wall 🎨
• Two sets of wonderful music and poetry by San Francisco Poet Laureate, Tongo Eisen-Martin and CCE community members 🎶
• Delectable and delicious bites and nibbles in between music
• Silent auction fundraiser

Let’s come together and connect our threads of humanity and creativity — sharing our interdependency, our gifts and our care for one another. We need creative community now more than ever.

🎟️ We want to make this event accessible to everyone. Your ticket is a donation that helps us raise funds to provide tuition assistance to all children and adults who couldn't afford intuitive painting otherwise. Please pay what you can, limited lower-price tickets available. No one turned away for lack of funds. Contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions, or need sliding scale or scholarships.

💜 Support our online silent auction (open from March 1 - 8 )! View and bid on our exciting auction items like a stay in the stunning Swiss Alps! Visit galabid.com/intuitivepainting. All funds raised through our event and fundraiser will go towards our nonprofit's Scholarship Fund to ensure intuitive painting is inclusive and accessible to all children and adults.
